Why Bitcoin is up 1.0% in the last hour

Analysis

Bitcoin rose about 1% over the past hour as traders appeared to lean into ETF-related narratives and positioning, with Bitcoin Magazine highlighting commentary from Charles Edwards on how β€œquantum risk” could become a bullish catalyst for BTC via ETF flows. The move also comes after earlier macro-driven weakness tied to a hot US PPI print that pushed BTC below $80K, suggesting a modest rebound as that initial selloff pressure eased.
